For a couple of years I've been doing retirement through work mutual fund via American funds. I put money in, bought stock, had x stock and once a year the stock price would drop sharply and I'd get equal stock to counteract that.
5 Months ago I made a vanguard account separate and put money in there, and I've only ever bought in whole numbers of stock, but I've gotten what I assume are dividends in the form of very small partial stocks. I didn't see any correlation with stock change. Can someone clarify these minor gains for me?
Thanks
